The Maternal Home \u201cIn Mother\u2019s Arms\u201d established by Diaconia, the Social Mission of the Metropolis of Bessarabia, celebrates nine years of existence. In this period, it was HOME for 130 mothers and their children, until they could be socially reintegrated. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This centre helps mothers in pregnancy crisis and mothers of infant children who are constrained to abandon their offspring: single mothers, teenage mothers, mothers from low-income families, marginalized mothers.<\/p>\n

\u201cMark Twain said kindness is the language heard by the deaf and seen by the blind,\u201d declared Mihaela Belei, programme coordinator.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the most precious lesson we learned in nine years. All humans change if they receive love, understanding and kindness. It is exactly what we try to provide daily to mothers and little children. This is how we manage together to get through the difficult periods in their lives,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

The maternal home offers to the mother-child couples services of accommodation, spiritual assistance, legal counselling, psychological counselling, support group, parental education, information about available social services, paperwork help, career counselling.<\/p>\n
